         8 . The UE of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the UE to release the logged measurement data from the at least one memory based on one or more of:
 expiration of a discard timer,   after reporting the logged measurement data,   an indication received from the network entity, and   satisfying a trigger condition at the UE.   
     
     
         9 . The UE of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the UE to perform the measurements and store the measurements in the at least one memory while in an RRC_CONNECTED state. 
     
     
         10 . The UE of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the UE to:
 receive, in a handover process, a validity indicator from a target base station;   compare the validity indicator to a validity area associated with the data collection configuration; and   determine whether to continue performing the measurements and logging the measurement data based on a result of the comparison, wherein the UE is configured to continue performing the measurements and logging the measurement data when the validity indicator matches the validity area.   
     
     
         11 . The UE of  claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the UE to perform at least one of releasing the data collection configuration and switching to a different data collection configuration when the validity indicator does not match the validity area. 
     
     
         12 . A processor for wireless communication, comprising:
 at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:   receive a first message comprising a data collection configuration from a network entity, the data collection configuration comprising at least one measurement configuration, at least one logging configuration, and at least one reporting configuration;   perform measurements according to a measurement configuration of the at least one measurement configuration;   log measurement data associated with the measurements according to a logging configuration of the at least one logging configuration by storing the measurement data in the at least one memory; and   transmit a second message to the network entity based on a reporting configuration of the at least one reporting configuration, the second message comprising the logged measurement data.   
     
     
         13 . The processor of  claim 12 , wherein the first message comprises an indication to activate, deactivate, suspend or release one or more of a measurement configuration, a logging configuration, and a reporting configuration of the data collection configuration.
